The Torneo Interligas de Básquet (Portuguese: Torneio Interligas Brasil-Argentina) (English: InterLeagues Basketball Tournament) was an international professional club basketball competition between the four best-placed teams in the top-tier level Argentine and Brazilian leagues.
History
[edit]The presidents of the Asociación de Clubes de Basquetbol of Argentina and of the Brazilian Liga Nacional de Basquete do Brasil met on March 12, 2010, in São Paulo, Brazil, to discuss the creation of a tournament between the top clubs from both countries.[1] The tournament was held from 2010 to 2012.
Format
[edit]In the first stage, the eight teams were divided in two groups of four teams each. Each group had two teams from Argentina, and two teams from Brazil. One group was played in Argentina, while the other group was played in Brazil. The teams played against the other teams of their respective groups once. The winner of each group placed in the final. The finals were played in Argentina, if there was at least one Argentine team. If there were two Brazilian teams, the final was played in Brazil.
